COMPARATIVE SCREENWRITING - PLAY & READ

Dr Romana Turina (Arts University Bournemouth, UK) had the idea of a COMPARATIVE SCREENWRITING approach to teaching screenwriting and proposed it - to the audience at the 14th Screenwriting Research Network International Conference, 2022. The SRN Directive Committee immediately formed the research group, and Dr Turina was appointed leader in this endeavour. This channel collects videos recording of the Comparative Screenwriting Seminars.

In March 2025, Dr Chris Neilan joined the channel with his SRN SIG Creative Play, and Dr Romana Turina joined also with the SIG Script Reading. The pedagogical nature of the three SIG groups made them a set of ideal collaborators, as we believe the cross-pollination will help our audience. As a consequence the Channel was re-named COMPARATIVE SCREENWRITING - PLAY & READ.
